I am obsessed with their covers.  They first came to my attention, as I imagine is the case for most Americans, with their haunting version of Radiohead&#8217;s <i>Creep<\/i>, which played over the <a href=http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lB95KLmpLR4\">first trailer for <i>The Social Network<\/i><\/a>.  At that time, their stuff was very hard to find, and not on iTunes.  You&#8217;d have to import CDs, etc.  But clearly someone got smart (the millions of people Googling  &#8220;Who does that awesome cover of Creep in the Social Network trailer&#8221; probably was a clue) and now their stuff is accessible.  <\/p>\n<p>Their cover of Creep is subtly terrifying, the sudden surges of volume, the sound of an entire chorus of women suddenly whisper, as one &#8230; it makes you feel like you are about to be murdered. By someone who says he loves you. <\/p>\n<p>But my favorite is their cover of Marilyn Manson&#8217;s song.  If you know <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Ypkv0HeUvTc\">the original<\/a>, this interpretation will blow you away and is just a testament to what a good song it is.  That it can <i>take<\/i> such an adjustment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A fascinating cover of Marilyn Manson&#8217;s raging The Beautiful People by the all-female Belgian chorus Scala &#038; Kolocny Brothers.
